Ms Wilson spoke about unintended consequences, as did Mr. Russoniello. I got the message from both of them, although they might correct me if I am wrong, that it is important to prepare the ground to have the support services in place and to have a strong foundation of support and care in place before moving into the area of decriminalisation. Was that Mr. Russioniello's message?
